Texas students give special needs classmate Christmas surprise

SOMERSET, TX (KFDA) - A video of several Somerset High School students gifting two new pairs of shoes to a special needs classmate has gone viral.

According to school's Facebook page, it all started when student JR Gilbert told his friends and fellow classmates that he was wearing shoes that were a size 10, even though his foot is actually a size 13.

So, his fellow Bulldogs raised the money to surprise Gilbert on Dec.15 with not one, but two brand new pairs of sneakers.

In the video, which has been viewed more than 5 million times, Gilbert is seen unwrapping his new 13 sized Nikes in front of a big crowd.
